Compression garments

[JoannLz 62]

I had read some where here about the diffrent compression garment that are recommended or used. Im 2 weeks out and the binder i was givin is ok but i i only feel it tight in my hip area not so much my upper body. I havent gotten swollen but i do like the support it gives. I just want something a bit more tighter. If any one recommends any. Thanks.

I used the Marena compression garments on Amazon. I liked the one that has suspenders, zips and snaps up the side, and extends down to the top of my knee. I used it the front and back part of my body lift and it worked much better than the binder. Link below.

Thank you so much. This binder they gave me is driving me nuts. And its so uncomfortable.

When I went in for my two-week checkup, I was told to give up the band. They said something about my muscles getting used to the compression. I had a by-pass. Is this different for a sleeve?

Cheri_j was this for the Tummy Tuck or body lift?

No, this was just for the bypass. I must have missed something. I have to wait two years before I can have the Tummy Tuck.

My binder is very similar to the pic from Amazon. The breast area of mine is built into the garment. I'm still swollen a few inches in my low back and bikini line area. But I like the support from my garment. It's itchy but it's summer time in Texas so anything would be lol. I don't have to wear it after 8-9 weeks but probably will until the full 12 weeks is over.
